Mr. Heemskerk runs a great hotel and makes sure you are knowledgeable of his city. I absolutely recommend you stay here for the convenience and quality - the building also has beautiful architecture and a private garden. A great part of the city as it is located close enough to everything.

Review by steven fantastic!

my wife and i stayed there for our honeymoon last week and it was simply fantastic! norman is a wizard when it comes to making you feel at home when being in a big city could be otherwise intimidating. the room with a jaccuzi and balcony is a honeymooners paradise. you must stay at this great hotel because you will get to experience a taste of amsterdam few are really priviledged to see. if you are looking for others interests beside getting totally wasted and want to find a good mix of culture and partying, stay here. be sure to pet bob (norman's big black dog) because as intimidating as he looks, he is very pleasant.

Review by Adam Comfortable, friendly, and in a nice part of town

I stayed at the Heemskerk Hotel over this past New Year's holiday. The place was very comfortable, and very clean. The host, Norman, was a very nice person and makes you feel very welcome, and he's always very helpful in planning your day. Right across the street is the Vondelpark, and just beyond that the Van Gogh. It seemed to be a very nice part of town, and in fact Norman did say a lot of wealthy people live in the area. My only real complaint is that there weren't any places to buy grass in immediate walking distance, but that's what the tram is for! Thanks very much to Norman and everyone at the hotel for maiking this a great trip!
